This is a mid-level role with clear ownership: you’ll report to the Head of Partnerships and collaborate with another Partner Manager in the region, while building trusted relationships with our DACH-based partners. Your mission is to grow pipeline and ARR by activating, enabling, and co-selling with our most valuable partners.

• Self-starter with a proactive mindset who takes initiative to grow the partner business independently and drives results without needing constant direction
• Experience working with enterprise customers (5,000+ users)
• Business fluent in German and English
• Comfortable with hybrid work and travel (25% in-region + HQ visits once per quarter)
• Experience with CRM or sales tools (e.g., Salesforce) is a plus
